Description
Come and make a beautiful swing lid box in a morning with a mix of hand and machine tools. Don't worry if you haven't done any woodworking since school, all will be explained. There are just two places in each class so you will receive detailed tuition and have any questions that come up answered in enough detail. If you want to come with a friend or partner just book two places on the same day. I'll guide you through my swing lid box project which uses the morticing machine, disc sander and table saw, as well as some Japanese chisels and saws. I want you to leave with something that makes people ask 'did you make that?!' and give you the confidence to carry on working with wood.

Maker
I moved up to Yorkshire in 2023 to be closer to family, after over a decade of making furniture and teaching woodworking classes for adults at my workshop in Islington, North London. My new space has the same feel – it's a real, professional woodworking workshop where I make my own furniture and commissions in an environment full of my own random woodworking curiosities. Ever seen a Japanese grooving plane? 18th Century dovetail saw? What about a homemade belt sander? I look forward to welcoming you with plentiful tea, random anecdotes, and always good cheer.

FAQs
Yes there is, in the yard right outside the workshop and its free.
Nope! I give everyone a toolkit to use while they are in the workshop. It's all good stuff, my characteristic mix of old, new, Western and Japanese tools
